I had a feeling someone would vote for John Quincy Adams, the first president to go skinny dipping.

Coolidge:

Had is head rubbed with petroleum jelly every morning while eating breakfast in bed.

Walked the White House at night trying to find left-overs to save a few bucks.

To save on buying chickens to make chicken dinners at the White House, Coolidge started his own chciken coop. The chicken tasted weird because the coop was built over the spot where Teddy Rooselvelt grew mint.

Secretary of State Hughes told Coolidge, "We need more planes to have an airforce." "Why?" Coolidge asked, "Can't the pilots take turns on same plane?"

Cleveland peed out his window in the White House if he did not want to go to the outdoor bathroom.

That is weird.

Johnson is worth mentioning for his unique press room (which had a toilet) and "Jumbo," which is a presidential detail I could have gone without knowing.

From what I've read and heard, Polk was a very strange man.

tape recorde3d his conversations where he talked about (among other things) firebombing the brookings institute, breaking into daniel ellsburg's shrink's office.

then there was that little deal with watergate.

the wondering around drunk, and talking to pictures on the wall was also a tad weird.

Lincoln. He most enjoyed having 'relations' with his wife when she was having her monthly.

I said Coolidge as well.  Didn't he have a pet racoon or something like that?  I also heard about a story where he had guests in the Oval Office and after 15 minutes, he hadnt arrived and they were starting to look around at the pictures and walk around the room, when he jumped out and scared them from underneath his desk.
